Listens: David Ford: "I Don't Care What You Call Me"

This looks oddly familiar...

I have neglected this thing for long enough.

Summer's going well. I have a job at a grocery store as a cashier. Other than that, I've been relaxing, and reading a lot. 3/4 of my paycheck basically goes to Borders now. I've gotten into the work of Truman Capote (although I've only read Breakfast At Tiffany's and a couple of short stories). I had to read Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird for school and loved it. I'm currently reading Mary Gaitskill's Veronica.

The rest of my paycheck usually goes to getting CDs. I can't get enough of Gnarls Barkley's song "Crazy," and I don't know why, lol. I've also bought Corrine Bailey Rae's CD. Hopefully, I'll be able to get David Ford's album (one of his songs was on the CD sampler of Paste magazine, and I loved it). And I'm impatiently waiting for the release of the new Indigo Girls CD "Despite Our Differences."

No vacation over the summer, but I will be going to Orlando for a week in late September, which I heard is nice because there aren't that many people vacationing during that time of year. A little nervous about the plane ride, but I'll suck it up.
